"Thriller" Indian style

Sometime this week we will doing a feature on music videos, what's good about them and what's bad about them kind of thing, but until then I will leave you with this gem from Bollywood...Slumdog Millionaire might have done wonders for making movies made in India viable, but I'm assuming that if this video was introduced in the 80's it would have done much, much more



And the following write-up is copied directly from www.cracked.com (A very RAL site) as I felt it was perfect, nothing I could do would be any better...

Pros: The singer is clearly a sex symbol is his own land, and gives hope to paunchy, jheri-curled men everywhere. Also, the video's a harsh reminder of everything that was good and bad about LSD.

Cons: There is only one person in the world who can dance like Michael Jackson without looking like a seizure victim. We'll give you a hint: It's not this guy. Also, we're not afraid to say it: All the zombies from the third row on back are pretty much just phoning it in here.

Highlight: Around 2:47 he breaks into a horrific leg-locked dance-walk with a hideous twitch:


When he first twitches, you think something's gone horribly wrong with his nervous system, but then he does it a couple of more times and you realize he's doing it on purpose.

Conclusion: A pleasantly zaftig imitator makes up for his paunch by bringing the whole affair in at a svelte three and a half minutes.
